I expect there are several instances of stumpwm running on multiple
computers (at least two, at a glance). It's also possible to start
stumpwm from a remote computer (say, over ssh -X) to manage the
windows on the local display. IIRC there were issues with clisp's clx
connecting to a remote host, but that was a long time ago.

I don't know if it's possible to have a single instance of stumpwm
manage windows on multiple hosts, but since it'd involve managing
multiple DISPLAYs I suspect it won't work without some modifications
to stumpwm's code.

For the record I did some dirty hack in the past with synergy[1] and
stumpwm to make it behave like a single session across two computers,
so depending on what you're trying to achieve you might want to have a
look at that.
